We are currently seeking engineers with experience in technical project work and a strong drive to develop the future air defense systems. Would you like to be part of qualified projects where you are involved from needs assessment to delivery? Then you might be the person we are looking for.
About the position
We are currently looking for system engineers in the areas of Effect/Sensor/Command and Control for the Air Defense Unit at the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV). As a system engineer, you will participate in one of our ongoing projects that require various areas of expertise, where you will collaborate with other project members to achieve the project's goals. You will be involved in configuration changes as well as verification and validation work. You will support the project manager in their responsibility to carry out procurement/maintenance. You will also participate in meetings and preparations for deliveries, both internally within FMV and externally with suppliers and the Armed Forces.
The position as System Engineer may be combined with other tasks within the air defense unit, and the responsibilities may change during the course of the projects. There are also good opportunities for employees to deepen their knowledge of specific systems through various internal training programs.
The position is based in Halmstad, and travel within Sweden and abroad is a natural part of the job.
About you
We are looking for someone with a degree in engineering (civil or university level) or other relevant education, or equivalent qualifications acquired in another way that we consider comparable. You also have several years of experience in technical project work. To succeed in this role, you need to have a good ability to express yourself in both Swedish and English, both verbally and in writing, as well as a valid driver's license (B).
It is advantageous if you have experience working with maintenance tasks within technical systems or with technically complex systems. Experience with the Armed Forces' technical services and maintenance organization is a clear advantage. Knowledge of air defense systems is desirable.
Personal qualities are very important to us. We welcome applicants from diverse backgrounds and experiences and are looking for someone who is self-driven, structured, and persistent, with a strong ability to collaborate and contribute to a team. Your experience allows you to see the big picture while also having the ability to work methodically and drive the work forward.
